LEGOLAND Malaysia enters Book of Records with the most mandarin orange replicas
If you missed the excitement of this event during the recent Chinese New Year in Legoland Malaysia, here is the recap.
After an exciting month of festive activities and special building events in commemoration of Chinese New Year, Asia’s 1st LEGOLAND Resort wrapped up the celebrations in style with LEGOLAND Malaysia enters Book of Records for the “Most Number of Mandarin Orange Replicas Made of LEGO Bricks”.
The record attempt was made successful with the active participation of Resort guests and the record was officially set with 2,015 LEGO Mandarin Oranges. The building activity commenced in early February to usher in the auspicious Chinese New Year. The oranges were on display at the Park for a limited period until 10 March 2015.
Apart from the record set attempt, LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort also fulfilled the wish of a very lucky guest as part of the Make-A-CNY-Wish activity at the Park. The initiative was held for the first time this year and countless park guests have been displaying heartfelt wishes and festive greetings on the Park’s replicas of the famed Lam Tsuen wishing trees at the Beginning area.
Among the 5,000 wishes that were submitted, the Resort management identified Ms Wong Yoke Lian from Kuala Lumpur as the lucky recipient. Her wish was to bring 40 children under the patronage of Diabetes Malaysia (Johor) to have a day out at the Resort. The organisation received the tickets and meal vouchers sponsorship from the Resort today and was represented by Mr Tan Poi Chuang, Chairman Diabetes Malaysia, Tanjung Puteri branch.
